Bringing back the old timers to participate in spring ball is suddenly all the rage.

It started with former California running back Marshawn Lynch suiting up and scoring a touchdown in his alma mater's spring game. Now, Miami has upped the ante by enlisting the services of 1992 Heisman Trophy winner Gino Torretta and NFL all-pro receiver Andre Johnson during its most recent scrimmage.

The flip-flop wearing Torretta took a snap from former Canes center Brett Romberg and lofted a 45-yard touchdown pass to Johnson, who jogged into the end zone. Of course, the current Miami players weren't actually defending on the play. But the crowd loved it, anyway.
